Detailed Description

Enumeration Type Documentation

CMProcStreamType

enum CMProcStreamType

of process stream types.

Enumerator
CMProcStreamNone	Process with no stream. The stdout and stderr of the child process will be redirected to the current process's stdout and stderr
CMProcStreamRead	Process with read stream. The current process can read from the child process's stdout using the Read method.
CMProcStreamWrite	Process with writing stream. The current process can write to the child process's stdin using Write method
CMProcStreamReadWrite	Process with read and write streams. The current process can read from the child process's stdout and write to the child process's stdin. This is the same as CMProcStreamRead | CMProcStreamWrite.
CMProcStreamReadErr	Process with read the error streams. The current process can read from the child process's stderr using the ReadErr method.
